INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
Preferred Investments, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Preferred
Investments, Inc. (a development stage company) as of June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999, and the related statements of operations for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, and cash
flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of
interim financial information consists principally of applying
analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially
less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression
of an opinion regarding the financial statement taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material
modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial
statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of accounting policies for Preferred Investments,
Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial
statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted
accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the
preparation of the financial statements.
The unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2000 and for the
three and six months then ended reflect, in the opinion of management,
all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to fairly state the financial position and results of
operations for the three and six months. Operating results for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which can be
expected for full years.
Organization and Basis of Presentation
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Wyoming on April 9, 1997. The Company ceased all operating activities
during the period from April 9, 1997 to October 20, 1999 and was
considered dormant. Since October 20, 1999, the Company is in the
development stage, and has not commenced planned principal operations.
Nature of Business
The Company has no products or services as of June 30, 2000. The
Company was organized as a vehicle to seek merger or acquisition
candidates. The Company intends to acquire interests in various
business opportunities, which in the opinion of management will provide
a profit to the Company.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not
being held for investment purposes.
Pervasiveness of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles required management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Loss per Share
The reconciliations of the numerators and denominators of the
basic loss per share computations are as follows:

The effect of outstanding stock equivalents are anti-dilutive for
June 30, 2000 and 1999 and are thus not considered.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1999 financial
statements to conform with the June 30, 2000 presentation.
NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES
As of June 30, 2000, the Company has a net operating loss
carryforward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $3,000
that may be offset against future taxable income through 2011. Current
tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future
taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.
Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be
limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements,
because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater change the carry-
forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits
of the loss carry-forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the
same amount.
NOTE 3 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company has not begun principal operations and as is common
with a development stage company, the Company has had recurring losses
during its development stage.

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS
As of June 30, 2000 all activities of the Company have been
conducted by corporate officers from either their homes or business
offices. Currently, there are no outstanding debts owed by the Company
for the use of these facilities and there are no commitments for future
use of the facilities.
NOTE 5 - STOCK SPLIT
On October 20, 1999 the Board of Directors authorized 1,000 to 1
stock split, changed the authorized number of shares to 100,000,000
shares and the par value to $.001 for the Company's common stock. As a
result of the split, 999,000 shares were issued. All references in the
accompanying financial statements to the number of common shares and
per-share amounts for 1999 have been restated to reflect the stock
split.
